Hello Getafix. Do I understand it correctly that to upload a mac trunk nightly you have to do all sorts of things because it doesn't build automatically now.?
Because from the Terrastorage link I get a build that is does not have an Oolite app.? Just asking for better understanding.

Yes that is the case. The Mac nightly was being built automatically on Ahruman's server but it stopped more than a month ago, March 9 at f9588d2.
Being a complete alien for the Mac world, I thought I had succeeded in replicating Ahruman's nightly builds.

Due to a bizarre mac nightly status page produced... the April Fool's day
an automatic redirect, to an alternative page, has been applied, as a precautionary measure.
The redirect should automatically be removed with the next fresh mac nightly build.

@JensAyton
It seems as if git has been configured to produce short hash having eight chars instead of the usual seven.
As a result, a string comparison condition, such as "31394c50" != "31394c5", triggered a new nightly build for mac.
Considering that for git the two hashes "31394c50" and "31394c5" actually refer to the same commit, the produced change-log was empty.

EDIT
Apologies for the big change-log. The last build, on the alternative build server, was performed some three months ago.
